We're fucking in a car, shooting heroin Saying controversial things just for the hell of it Selling melanin and then suffocate the black men Start with misdemeanours and we'll make a business out of them And we can find out the information Access all the applications that are hardening positions based on miscommunication Oh F*ck your feelings Truth is only hearsay We're just left to decay Modernity has failed us And I'd love it if we made it Yes, I'd love it if we made it Yes, I'd love it if we made it Yes, I'd love it if we made it And poison me daddy I've got the Jones right through my bones Write it on a piece of stone A beach of drowning three-year-olds Rest in peace Lil Peep The poetry is in the streets Jesus save us Modernity has failed us And I'd love it if we made it Yes, I'd love it if we made it Yes, I'd love it if we made it Yes, I'd love it if we made it And I'd love it if we made it And I'd love it if we made it And I'd love it if we made it I'd love it if we made it Tell me something I didn't know Consultation Degradation Fossil fuelling Masturbation Immigration Liberal kitsch Kneeling on a pitch "I moved on her like a bitch" Excited to be indicted Unrequited house with seven pools "Thank you Kanye, very cool" The war has been incited and guess what? You're all invited And you're famous Modernity has failed us And I'd love it if we made it And I'd love it if we made it And I'd love it if we made it Tell me something I didn't know And I'd love it if we made it And I'd love it if we made it And I'd love it if we made it And I'd love it if we made it
